I have a IEASYMxx member which is intended to set symbol &LOC to null unless it 
is used on a machine with HWNAME ‘DR’ or z/os is running in a particular z/VM 
machine.

SYSDEF  SYMDEF(&LOC=‘’’)
SYSDEF HWNAME(DR) SYMDEF(&LOC=‘DR’)
SYSDEF VMUSERID(DREMHZB) SYMDEF(&LOC=‘DR’)


On the production machine &LOC is correctly set to DR if running on VM DREMHZB 
and null otherwise but on the DR machine the HWNAME(DR) filter is not working 
in the way that I expected and &LOC is null.

The IEASYMxx documentation states for HWNAME “To use this parameter or accept 
its default value, ensure that the processor on which z/OS is running supports 
dynamic I/O configuration. Also, ensure that the I/O configuration was built 
using HCD.’

The IOCDS source was of course built using HCD but it was then compiled on the 
DR machine using the stand-alone compiler and I think the token may have been 
ignored.

Does anyone have any thoughts on this problem. I can of course work around the 
problem but I would like to understand what is going wrong.

TIA
Keith Gooding
